Some good news--my husband who was originally being somewhat unsupportive of the surgery due to fear has spoken with a friend who is a gastroenterologist who told him what I've been telling him all along--being 110 lbs overweight is way more dangerous than this surgery in the long run. What a relief! Had my last appointment with my surgeon today and HAVE A TENTATIVE DATE OF MAY 9TH. All caps because I feel like I've been going on and on about how the wait for a date was killing me. I am thrilled.

I am ever getting excited about the 14 day liquid diet ;-)

Looking forward to moving to the next part of this journey and glad to have this support system in place.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
